I just had my consult yesterday and they said they were submitting it into insurance. How long should this take?

It only took a day for them to let me know I was approved after they submitted to insurance.

It does really depend on your insurence. I had to get pre-approval, then about a month out they confirmed with what my deductable would be. (only 147 dollars!) With paying the highest insurence possible it made it a lot less expensive then my best friend who just had the surgery today. (1200 dollars)

I wish you the best of luck. you should call your insurence and let them know what you are looking to do.

Ok yeah I have 2 insurances and I don't think I'll have to pay anything but I'm wondering if this will take longer then to get approved and such. I have united health care and as a second insurance, Medicaid. I'm nervous about the lifetime issues/changes my body will be put through but I think that after I lose the weight and I work on keeping it off I think it will be worth it. I'm just nervous as I am only 22 but don't want to waste half my life trying to convince myself the weight will come off. If it hasn't come off yet and has been bad for over 10 years I don't think it's getting anything but worse ya know?
